Shandra is the CEO of The Transit Lounge, working with women who want to grow their service-based side businesses into profitable, thriving ventures in part-time hours.

She’s an award-winning marketing director, professional results coach, Money Breakthrough coach, podcast host, and co-author of the international bestselling book, Elevate Your Success.

Following a diagnosis of severe adrenal fatigue in 2014, Shandra became passionate about supporting women to be their own boss—so they can earn great money doing work they love, without burning out.

She helps them achieve this through private coaching and her 30-day online course called Marketing Mojo.

In today’s episode of Smashing the Plateau, you will learn how to transition from corporate life to entrepreneurship, build confidence, and find the right community to support your business journey.
